1. We go to Lowes b/c we are poor and we get a discount when we go there! :) 2. The first tree we look at was a 7-8 foot tree. 3. Amanda tells Derek, lets go look at the 6-7ft. trees because they are cheaper. 4. As we are looking at the 6-7 foot trees someone comes to the 1st tree we looked at the picks it up. Derek wispers to Amanda, "They have OUR tree!!!" 5.The people set the tree back down and...6. Derek, says..."ok, I was jealous when the other people picked up the tree...I think that means that that one is the first George Family Christmas tree!" :)

So...that is the George way to pick out a Christmas tree!! haha!! :)

Here are some pictures. They are out of order because my computer is wierd but you will get the main idea!! :)

We went to Bojangles before we got our tree. We may make that a tradition!! :D YUM!! :D

What a fun day this was!!! :)

I wrote this 3 months ago and have been waiting for the right time to post it. I have written quite a few short things about all that I have learned through this life trial. I am still learning and I still have to have an attitude check every once in a while. I am thankful for all that I have learned and how the Lord has molded me to be more like Him.

It's been two months (almost to the day) that we left our church (our job) and while in some ways it has been such a relief in other ways it has been stressful and downright hard. I am a planner and I like to have everything planned out. I have my 5year "plan" and my 10 year "plan" but sometimes God says, "That might be your plan but it's not MY plan for you!" I have learned so much about trusting God (see my last post) and I have also learned a lot about realizing that when things don't go the way I want or the way I *think* they should go God still loves me. I have been a believer since I was 5…

So, not a Proverbs post but it is what has been on my heart this morning. I had a 4:30am wake up call from my 1yr old (just needed mommy) and the again at 5:30am. Then my 2.5yr old was up at 6am. It has not been the best morning. Lots a whining and crying. I'm not gonna lie...I pretty much want to do that same. If I could lay in the floor flailing my arms and legs crying, today might be the day I would do that. After such an early wake up call. I had to refocus my heart this morning. This was such an encouragement to me.

"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." Psalm 103 1-5

I am so thankful today for all that I am and all that I have in Christ. He is the rea…

I forgot to write my finishing post to P90X. We finished it right before Thanksgiving so I guess I just got busy with the holidays and forgot to post about finishing. It was one of the hardest but most rewarding things I have ever done! It is just over 90 days of workouts 6 days a week and each workout was about 1hr-1.5hrs. It took all of naptime, which probably actually helped me to lose weight because naptime is when I get into trouble. haha. Thats when I like to get snacks and veg on the couch watching my favorite TV show (this is when I would get in my chick flicks that Derek didn't want to watch with me!!! ;-) ) So anyway, when I replaced that with working out it helped my calorie intake a lot! I lost 13lbs and 5" total! It was pretty impressed with the loss that I experienced. It got me back to below highschool size and weight. I didn't realize that until I found some old pants at my parents house that were from high school and i realized they were too big! I have d…
